EPITHELIAL TISSUE
Epithelial tissue or epithelium is composed of one
or more layers of cells, arranged next to each other
without any space between them.
This tissue covers the external surface of body,
forming the skin, and lines cavities and tracts such as
the stomach and the intestines.

•
The epithelial cells are arranged in
many layers, which is why it is called
pluristratified epithelial tissue.
•
The nucleus of the cell can be
seen well, as it has been stained a
dark purple colour.

so it is called pseudostratified

• The cells are prism-like in shape
and their nuclei have been stained
a dark blue colour.

MUSCLE TISSUE
Muscle tissue is composed of elongated cells, the
muscle fibres. These fibres are contractile, which
means they contract in response to stimuli.
The muscle tissue forms the muscles of the locomotor
system (skeletal muscles), the heart (cardiac muscle
or myocardium) and the walls of some
organs
(smooth muscle).

are elongated and found along the
sides of the fibres.

CONNECTIVE TISSUE
Connective tissue is composed of cells separated by an
intercellular substance called the matrix. Their function
in the body is to connect and support.
There are various types of connective tissue:
conjunctive tissue, cartilaginous tissue, adipose
tissue, bone tissue and blood tissue.

strange shape with small lobes
attached to each other.
